I am trying to get back in the swing of things. We all have heard the expression “when it rains it pours”. Well it’s pouring here at the moment. I am marking the days off on my calendar. The pouring should come to a sprinkle in 11 days. Keep your fingers crossed.
I made 2 Layouts for 2 different assignments. I was trying to be clever and combine the to assignments to make just one LO. You be the judge.
Here are the 2 assignments
- Make a layout without any embellishments. Me: yay right how do I do that?
- Go green or go home
Love you more everyday:
for the Go Green theme, I was recycling. Using scraps & old packaging, clever huh? And for the no embellishment part, well it is all paper!
Ok I used a stamp, and some paint, throw in the stitching and I guess I failed, BUT isn’t it cute!
